Check out this video where 2 ex-CNT team members talk about it, along with slow motion videos of them executing the technique. My understanding is that the difference between the FH and BH is that for FH you have a right to left weight transfer, while for BH you're rotating around the right...

Awesome, will do! The bouncing of the rails mechanism really isn't ideal. The unwanted sidespin is one of the top annoyances to me as it makes every multi-location drill a real pain. It also takes a lot of speed and topspin off the ball when you're trying to lower the trajectory as the ball...

I arrived 10/29 afternoon and left 11/2 morning, so my only 2 full days in Shanghai exactly coincided with the typhoon 😭 Unfortunately I probably won't be back for a while, but I'll probably take advantage of the BF sales and get myself a Halo.

Wait until you see LSD's blade, I heard it'll prevent your opponents from seeing your serves 🤭

Possibly, but right now I'm just focusing on working on my technique.

Right, having a high ELO means being the most dominant for the longest time while playing, so that'd be Ma Long by a long shot. WLQ would probably be number two. Everyone else is fighting for number three.

After boosting it weighs about the same as D09c. Very similar in hardness as well when measured on durometer, just slightly harder. Keep in mind though that I can only measure its hardness with both the sponge and topsheet, not just the sponge by itself.

Do you guys plan on having a Black Friday sale? I was gonna visit your company when I was in China but unfortunately a typhoon hit exactly when I was in Shanghai :confused:

Should try the WMY blade or the Inspira Hybrid. I only briefly hit the golden Vis and the Inspira Hybrid with the same rubbers, but they felt rather similar. Both felt much more woody than the regular Vis and FZD I have.

On brush loops you'll feel the ball leaving the racket much quicker with the Viscaria, thus requiring a bit more precision. On any shot hitting into the blade you'll feel the W968 having much higher throw angle, naturally creating an arc, while the Viscaria will be much quicker and more direct...

How's that screaming? You're way too soft if you can't even handle coaching like that. With that said, I think coaching needs to be individualized. Some people respond better to words of encouragement, a softer coaching style, while some respond better to a more fiery, tough-love style. It's...

Whats most important IMO isn't the wings, it's the relative lack of pores on the ayous core as you go up the level with HL5 variants.

You can probably put a piece of friction tape there. I did that for RPB on the BH side for better grip.

Yeah I'm still using it. I'm going for the opening as much as possible, I go for kills only when the opponent block. In rallies Igo more for spin. As for more punch style with a lot of elbow movement vs the elbow to the side more as a fulcrum, I'm still trying to figure it out. I kind of just...

So to summarize: 1) Be more aggressive and attack first as well as utilizing tactics that will allow you to attack first, e.g. serve short, more topspin/no spin. 2) Learn better blocks, e.g. block earlier off the bounce and go over the ball 3) Call out the illegal serves. I think those are...

LSD's been called many times before. WCQ does seem to get away with it more often than most.

Everything in a match except for tactics SHOULD be automatic. You cannot be thinking about footwork, recovery, form, how to read spin, how to anticipate, etc. in a match. The only thing you should be thinking about beyond the service/receive stage is things like "I should use more spin/speed" or...

I've played with both the W968 and the Viscaria, and I often also play against them. All with various rubbers though for the FH side it's primarily H3 BS. My conclusion on the FH side is pretty similar to others. When fully unleashed, the W968 is a beast with the H3BS, but it does take pretty...

Yes, it's extremely brittle. Don't ever try to peel glue off of a Tenergy FX, even if you don't rip it it'll have countless small holes where the sponge is ripped out.

Must be the service training with Craig!
